Big Bang at Moonbangoos Near You

Bigbang2_20080219_popseoul

To further encourage prepubescent schoolgirls daydreaming of their Big Bang oppas during class, YG Entertainment released school supplies plastered with cartoon replicas of the teen heartthrobs.

YG Entertainment commissioned a character designer to create these Big Bang counterparts dubbed “Bangs.” The Bangs boys were also given cuter names to coincide with their caricature images, Tabi (T.O.P.), Tori (Seung Ri), Ssoong Yi (Dae Sung), Be Be (Tae Yang), and Jing Yo (G-Dragon) and the “B-School Set” was released yesterday at moonbangoos (stationary stores) everywhere.

School supplies are just the first in what we suspect will be a many-pronged marketing operation. And YG Entertainment confirmed its intent to continue Bangs character products, following SM’s lead in commercializing his artists for what they are worth.

Although this is a nice change from the anatomically incorrect Girls Generation dolls, I expected more from YG and his “artists.”

    ^ U don’t need to be hating on them… if u don’t like them don’t read about it

  18. 19 forever February 24, 2008 at 6:58 pm

    ^^ wow that was random.. and why are you making fun of fan girls when it’s apparent your a fan girl yourself. you make your sn heechul lover and call fan girls stupid for liking big bang’s products? that makes a WHOLE lotta sense..

  19. 20 crystal199187 February 24, 2008 at 8:28 pm

    @Heechul_Luv3R,

    i guess u r an ELF…may i ask how old r u?
    dun come here 2 bash BB like u noe all about them…
    u claimed dat BB can’t sing?u dare 2 say dis when ur own Suju sang terribly n can’t perform live?
    BB performed live in all their performances except two when they sang another singer’s songs…
    meanwhile,SuJu always lip-sync n when they din lip-sync,a few of them will sing off-key…

    oh come on,a lot of us knows dat SuJu’s popular bcos they depends on their looks…
    onli u naive gurls aka de ELVES kept defending SuJu by saying they r super talented…
    since u r a Heechul fan,i’ll talk about heechul…
    most of us knows dat heechul himself have admitted dat he can’t sing n dance…
    dun bash BB by saying they can’t sing when ur heechul can’t sing n dance…

    at least,BB’s cartoons r better than SuJu’s caricatures…
    dis is a BB’s post,if u dun like,dun visit dis post…
    go back 2 ur beloved SuJu’s post…
    fyi popseoul luvs 2 bash SuJu a lot,so dun visit dis website 2 save ur breath…

  20. 21 ? February 25, 2008 at 8:33 am

    Heechul_Luv3r,

    Most of Suju members can’t sing(especially heechul)

    THey always lip sync and even if they aren’t always one of them are always off key.

    At least BIg Bang was chosen for there talent unlike Suju

  21. 22 crystal199187 February 25, 2008 at 2:15 pm

    @?,
    totally agree wit u…. :)

  22. 23 asdf March 3, 2008 at 11:26 am

    you guys dont need to bash on heechul

  23. 24 ? March 4, 2008 at 11:49 am

    were not trying to just trying to prove a point

  24. 25 ihatebigbang March 16, 2008 at 8:47 am

    Heechul_Luv3R: i agree w/ u.

    THIS IS WHAT BIGBANG IS;

    FORMULA:

    ugly+terrible singing skills+no dancing skills+absolute idiots=bigbang

    also, big bang is: THE MOST UGLIEST, UNTALENTED GROUP OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD.
    and “G-Dragon?” what’s THAT supposed to mean? “Gay-Dragon” or something?
    YEAHH i think so.

    and u cant expect everybody to be perfect wen they sing LIVE?!?!
    stupid ppl here.they actually think big bang is GOOD.
    psh.
    YOU PEOPLE HAVE NO TASTE!

    and dear crystal199187:
    YOU EFFIN SUCK.

  25. 26 crystal199187 March 21, 2008 at 6:17 pm

    @ihatebigbang,
    looks like there’s another ELF in here…
    if u hate bigbang so much,dun visit dis bigbang post…
    u claimed dat BB is de most untalented group in de world?
    hv u listen 2 every group in de whole world?
    i highly doubt dat…dun bash other group when ur own fav group r not super talented at all…

    u claimed dat BB r absolute idiots..another word 4 idiot is stupid…
    i dun think they r stupid cos they get quite high marks in their exams cos Mr.YG will kick them out if they can’t score well…
    fyi,g-dragon’s name is translated from his korean name…
    i wun explain it since i doubt u’ll ever care…

    yes,not every singers is perfect when they sing LIVE…
    but if they lip-sync or get off key almost everytime they sing LIVE,
    i think they shld reconsider their career as singers…
    de songs r great doesn’t mean they r great singers cos all their flaws can be edited out easily…
    de reason ppl go to concerts n LIVE performances is 2 hear de singers sing LIVE n 4 de singers 2 prove dat they r capable singers..

    if u wanna reply my comment,plz gather enuf points 2 do so…
    dun jz make pointless comments n use rude words 2 scold ppl…

  26. 27 Schemeness March 26, 2008 at 1:04 pm

    I agree with Cindel, much love to Big Bang, but I want ma 1TYM lighters and switchblades. ;D

  27. 28 ihatebigbang April 4, 2008 at 2:03 pm

    big bang is friggin ugly, all except for TOP.
    ever listen to KRY?
    yeah. didn’t think so.
    if you did, you wouldn’t be saying that Super Junior can’t sing.
    go listen to “The One I Love”.
    IT’S HECKKA GOOD.

    and its kind of hard to sing perfectly when you have to dance.
    dancing not like big bang’s little wave and shaking hands.
    dance as in jumping around, moving from side to side, avoiding your other 12 members. give big bang 8 backdancers and some better dance moves, and i bet you they’ll so too.

    oh yeah. ever hear of overdoing it?
    you take things the wrong way.
    did i ever SAY i listened to every group?
    they’re the worst of all i’ve heard.
    i know i said they’re the worst in the world, but does that necessarily mean that i really meant the WORLD?
    maybe if you used your common sense, you wouldn’t sound as stupid.

    here in my area, 98% big bang. WHY? thanks for asking.

    as i said before, big bang = ugly+terrible singing skills+no dancing skills+absolute idiots

    why don’t YOU come back with proper points?

  28. 29 lizz August 8, 2008 at 8:44 am
